I stayed for one night in May 2026, and my experience was okay. The bed was comfy, and I slept well, and all of the staff I encountered were very kind and helpful.
I had dinner and breakfast there, and the food was overall pretty good.

However, the property is very dated and when I arrived I found a long piece of wall/wallpaper hanging off the wall beside the main bed. It looked terrible, and the wall beside it was filthy. See pictures attached. I did ask to be moved rooms, and although the gentleman helping me was very kind and did speak to his manager to try and accommodate my request, I was told that the hotel was fully booked so I could not be moved. They did offer me a complimentary breakfast as a result, which was appreciated; however, the general shabiness of the room, with the wallpaper issue and dirty walls, plus glasses in the room that also looked a bit grubby, were all very off-putting, and certainly not the standard I would expect from a 4 star hotel.

I would also add that having instant coffee packets at the breakfast, and only soya milk as a non-dairy alternative, were disappointing.

Window did not close, had to have staff come up and use a towel to wrap around the outside to yank it closed. Bathroom door side coming off door, had to push and hold door wood to close the door. Room walls had stains all over, bed in desperate need of replacement. No elevator and no help offered to carry bags to 2nd floor.

The family room was a good size. Bed was comfortable. Towel hooks were lacking in the room. Maybe because it looked as though part of a rail was missing above the end of the bath.The carpets heading to the first floor had wrappings lying around and weren't cleaned during our stay. The cooked breakfast was good. We had a good evening meal.

Room was basic and clean so that's a positive. Heating was locked to 22c so no option to modify to personal preference.
Food in the pub was dire. If it came out of a deep fat fryer then you are in luck, but cooking a steak was above them ( twice ! ) breakfast was disappointing. Only Nescafé coffee unless you want to pay extra for machine coffee. Save some money and go to Macdonald's over the road

On a positive very quiet nights sleep. No noise from outside or in.

This is a good budget hotel within easy walking distance of the ferry around Loch Lomond and the train into Glasgow. There is a small shopping centre nearby with cafes and the shores of Loch Lomond . The room had a comfy bed and a bath . The food in the pub was basic but cheap . The staff were very pleasant and helpful. We had an excellent cooked breakfast. The room could have benefited from a towel rail and a daily replenishment of clean cups and tea and coffee. The tables in the pub were not always very clean but that was because they were very short staffed at times

Too crowded a room

Room is normal but very crowded. I booked a room for three adults (1 double bed+1 single bed) but I got one double bed and 2 single beds packed together which left very little space to manoeuvre.
Also that is an accessible room which is a bit unexpected and difficult to use.

It was our first time staying in a Marstons Inn but really was pleasantly surprised! Lovely location on Balloch, quiet room and fairly big. Lots of parking and restaurants alongside was decent pub food. Only disappointing bits was air conditioning was there (big thumbs up in the gorgeous weather we had) but sadly it didn’t really work… set at lowest temp of 19 it never moved off the first fan speed. If you stood next to it you could feel a slight cooling. Otherwise the family room we had was really good. Very clean and bigger than expected. I’d say a half star above the premier inn type. All in all we had a great stay and would definitely consider Marston Inns for future northern stays….

Did the job as an overnight stay, although pillows are flimsy and bad quality and the mattress was like a pancake at the head-end.

Overall it was fine in the end, but I understand other people might struggle on that mattress.

Had breakfast at the restaurant which was amazing, staff were all friendly and attentive. Great experience for an early start.

We reserved a twin room for two non couple adults. On arriving we found that we were given a double (1 bed). When we asked to either change or for staff to separate the beds, we were told no one was available. We offered to separate the beds ourselves if we could just have the linens and were told that staff didnt have access to the linen cupboard. We were given one extra comforter and tokd that the beds would be made right in the morning. We separated the beds ourselves and improvised with what we had. The next day staff didnt touch the room...no new linens, no new towels, no tea bags, nothing. Our final day we were given two twin comforters, but our improvised linens (improvised by us) were not changed. Staff was never available to assist us as they were busy with patrons of the bar and restaurant. There is no dedicated staff for the hotel. There is no closet, no space to dry wet clothes (for a hotel in the Scottish highlands), very few amenities. I would not recommend staying here.

I’ll admit checking into the property inside of a restaurant was not expected. The check-in notes should probably mention this. The servers in the restaurant were very good especially Natasha. The WiFi was pretty much worthless. The property was clean and had ample parking spots.

Toilet seat was loose and there was mould on the bathroom ceiling. The room was spacious and well presented, good power shower. One of the barmen in the restaurant/pub wasn't friendly or approachable, didn't really want to help and clearly didn't want to be there.

Saggy mattress, had to walk to next building for bathmat, heavy loud doors, key card required to enter building and turn on lights so couldn’t leave someone in room if wanted to go out with key. Should have spent a little more to stay somewhere comfortable. But the town is quite lovely!
